Show Element Description in attached Note
« on: October 29, 2016, 12:38:25 am »
Does anyone know if there is any feature in EA for showing the description of a diagram in an attached Note or visual element of some kind, rather than showing it inside the body of the element itself?  This would give more control over presentation in diagrams.

- Make a note on the diagram
- link the note to the element
- right click on the link between the note and the element and choose "link this note to an Element Feature"
- select "Element Note"
